Here is a Forum Block, that will show the latest post simular to the way SMF will. This will give you control over what forums you want to show in your latest post on a particular page.

An amazing mod... Looks splendid. Just one thing though - how do I get it to display the icon of the "FIRST" post instead of the most current ?
